BEAR MOUNTAIN ORCHARDS STARTED IN 1937 WHEN ROBERT AND MARY LOTT PURCHASED THE HOME FARM IN ASPERS, PENNSYLVANIA OF 159 ACRES WITH A FEW ESTABLISHED FRUIT TREES.
After few years of planting, maintenance, and increased production, the very first packing shed was built. Since then, the fruit acreage has grown significantly and the packing facilities have gone through many upgrades keeping up with the latest technological advances. The latest controlled atmosphere (CA) storage facilities were finished in 2014 in a partnership with Bream Orchards. Today, Bear Mountain Orchards is being led by the second generation siblings, John Lott and Sheila Gantz.
Bear Mountain Orchards is still continuing its progression and innovation in the fruit industry.
